[Intro]
Asus2 Fmaj7b5
[Verse 1]
Asus2 Fmaj7b5 Asus2 Fmaj7b5
My bouncing ball had started it all
Asus2 Fmaj7b5 Asus2 Fmaj7b5
A whirlpool of fun down the drain
Asus2 Fmaj7b5 Asus2 Fmaj7b5
Butterfingers slipped and fell
D E
Into tunnels of filth and black rain
D A D A
A big wet kiss from mother nature
F C G
Sent me on my merry way
Asus2 Fmaj7b5 Asus2 Fmaj7b5
But tidal waves of fear disappeared

When I thought that I heard someone say

Welcome to the land of tomorrow and today

Here inside the land of true infatuation

A thousand children laughed insanely
Asus2 Fmaj7b5 Asus2 Fmaj7b5
Kissing me from head to toe
Asus2 Fmaj7b5 Asus2 Fmaj7b5
"Don’t look down," they warned as we marched
D E
Through a towering forest that glowed
D A D A
Tattooed upon my face a reflection

Traveling from ear to ear
Asus2 Fmaj7b5 Asus2 Fmaj7b5
And through my veins this creature of comfort

Bubbled away all my fears

Welcome to the land where we only live to play

Here inside the land of true infatuation
Bm D E F#m E
You’ll come to understand for it's here that you will stay
Bm D E F#m E
Yeah, in the land of dream disintegration
Bm D E F#m E
You’ll follow my command - so down on your knees and pray
Bm D E F#m E
You’ll love what we have planned: A sideshow freak attraction
Bm D E D
Now sink into the sand from which there is no escape
[Outro]
A Gmaj7
Drowning into the sand, waving goodbye with my hand
A Gmaj7
I’m dying to be the buried treasure
A Gmaj7
Digging to quench my thirst, counting on finding it first
A Gmaj7
I’m dying to be the buried treasure
